Bill > HB523

This bill addresses the procedures for federal immigration agents seeking access to public schools in New Mexico. Specifically, the legislation stipulates that a federal immigration agent who has obtained a judicial warrant for a person believed to be present within a public school must first request access from the local school superintendent or charter school head administrator. Upon receiving such a request, the superintendent or administrator is required to carefully review the warrant and determine whether the agent's access is legally permissible. The bill appears designed to create a structured, deliberate process for handling immigration enforcement activities in educational settings, potentially aiming to provide a layer of review and protection for students and school personnel while still allowing lawful judicial processes to be followed.
